Psalms 138

1 Ti Dafidi. Èmi yóò yìn ọ́ tinútinú mi gbogbo; níwájú àwọn òrìṣà ni èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí ọ.

A Psalm for David, of Aggaeus and Zacharias. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart; and I will sing psalms to you before the angels; for you have heard all the words of my mouth.

2 Èmi ó máa gbàdúrà sí ìhà tẹmpili mímọ́ rẹ̀ èmi ó sì máa yin orúkọ rẹ nítorí ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ àti òtítọ́ rẹ; nítorí ìwọ gbé ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ ga ju orúkọ rẹ lọ.

I will worship toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your name, on account of your mercy and your truth; for you have magnified your holy name above every thing.

3 Ní ọjọ́ tí mo ké pè é ọ́, ìwọ dá mi lóhùn, ìwọ sì fi ipa mú mi lára le ní ọkàn mi.

In whatever day I shall call upon you, hear me speedily; you shall abundantly provide me with your power in my soul.

4 Gbogbo àwọn ọba ayé yóò yìn ọ́, Olúwa, ní ìgbà tí wọn bá gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu rẹ.

Let all the kings of the earth, o Lord, give thanks to you; for they have heard all the words of your mouth.

5 Nítòótọ́, wọn ó máa kọrin ní ipa ọ̀nà Olúwa; nítorí pé ńlá ni ògo Olúwa.

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

6 Bí Olúwa tilẹ̀ ga, síbẹ̀ ó júbà àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n agbéraga ni ó mọ̀ ní òkèrè réré.

For the Lord is high, and [yet] regards the lowly; and he knows high things from afar off.

7 Bí èmi tilẹ̀ ń rìn nínú ìpọ́njú ìwọ ni yóò sọ mi di ààyè; ìwọ ó na ọwọ́ rẹ sí àwọn ọ̀tá mi, ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ yóò sì gbà mí.

Though I should walk in the midst of affliction, you will quicken me; you have stretched forth your hands against the wrath of mine enemies, and your right hand has saved me.

8 Olúwa yóò ṣe ohun tí ń ṣe tèmi láṣepé; Olúwa, àánú rẹ dúró láéláé; má ṣe kọ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ ara rẹ sílẹ̀.

O Lord, you shall recompense [them] on my behalf: your mercy, O Lord, [endures] for ever: overlook not the works of your hands.
